Low Density Potting Epoxy Is RF Transparent And Saves Weight

Intertronics has come up with some very advanced light-weight epoxy potting technology which brings the density right down to 0.6. The “adhere” IRS2012 is an exciting development for weight critical applications, e.g. in aerospace or autosport and is potentially of great significance for mainstream automotive systems and even railway systems where it is increasingly recognized that weight saving leads to fuel savings and a reduced carbon footprint.

“adhere” IRS2012 is not only very light on account of its advanced fillers, but is also very RF transmissive and is effectively transparent to radio signals, with excellent electrical properties, low cure shrinkage, good chemical resistance and good mechanical properties – highly suitable in fact for potting of aerials and related equipment.
